Cura 5.3 : Issues in start gcode

Posted · Cura 5.3 : Issues in start gcode

I use some replacement parterns in my start gcode :

{used_material,x) -> adds Tx Material used by the tool

{used_nozzle_size,x) -> adds Tx Nozzle size used by the tool

 

It was working fine with Cura 5.2.2.

Upgrading to 5.3 has broken the replacement pattern for these two settings.

 

Is there a way to fix it ?

    I think you used {material_used,x} before. {used_material,x} never was something that Cura recognized.

    Similarly, you should use {machine_nozzle_size,x} not {used_nozzle_size,x}.

    Hi @ahoeben

    Thanks for your feedback. Indeed {material_used,x} and {machine_nozzle_size,x} are in the Settings and replacement patterns list. I've used them.

    I have realized that {used_material,x} and {used_nozzle_size,x} are functions generated by a plugin or a script written by my vendor to accommodate IDEX on Cura.

    I need to go deeper in the implementation

    Sorry, I was mistaken in my previous reply.

     

    {machine_nozzle_size, x} should work just like that (with the extruder nr filled in)

    {filament_amount} is replaced by a list, so you cannot specify an extruder number.

     

    For the full list of replacement patterns, see http://files.fieldofview.com/cura/Replacement_Patterns.html

    Also I have realized that the 2 functions created by my vendor works fine except if I disable the extruder 1.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
